Re:Tech job listings are down 40% on several job boards by hiou on Friday July 08, 2016 @12:52PM (#12056897)
Its definitely slowing down a bit, but the other side is that the talent pool is growing significantly. This doesn't mean there is nothing out there. That said, it is getting much closer to looking for any typical professional job if you don't have contacts. Send out tons of resumes and eventually you'll get lucky type stuff. Sometimes doing some freelance contact work for a company is a good in for web work as well.

The pool is definitely growing. One of the consequences of this is that you now often have to do online coding tests in order to be invited to a real interview on site. Personally I think that in Europe it has become much more difficult to find a job as a software developer compared to a decade ago and the wages are also going down. I don't see how the US can escape the same destiny in near future...
